LGBT+ people around the world need safe digital spaces to access information, organise, and connect, especially in countries where LGBT+ people are criminalised.

But now, a Canadian company called Netsweeper is providing technology that censors LGBT+ content in countries like the United Arab Emirates.

Netsweeper’s filters are violating international human rights guidelines. They have recently admitted internal changes are needed, but research by Canadian group Citizen Lab shows that their filter targeting LGBT+ content was still active as of December 4.

Sign the petition and ask Netsweeper to respect the human rights of LGBT+ people and put an end to censoring filters that block LGBT+ content NOW.
